@Duluth Is this one of the things Rugby Australia have successfully negotiated with NZR? Why else again in Melbourne? Why not a Super Round in NZ?
especially after this year poor turn out numbers wise
It was a 2 year deal, Victoria Gov't money pays all the teams a certain amount, they do alright out of it.
Stupid thing if I read correctly that Crusaders/Highlanders game is a late Friday game, wouldn't any sensible organisation have them early game to suit viewing time in NZ a little more? -

Which city is going to pay the dollars to Sanzaar to hold it here? Think thats what it's about money, and having it early in Aus helps to give game a boost before NRL/AFL start.

Lack of direct flights and accommodation for 11 teams might be a bit of an issue?

@KiwiMurph never said id worked out all the details, they all come and play there eventually so should be do able, if it was the first round it would be closer to O week and would give any team that could come earlier the chance to get there and train
